We are also changing how remote playback works for streaming personal media (that is, playback when not on the same local network as the server). The reality is that we need more resources to continue putting forth the best personal media experience, and as a result, we will no longer offer remote playback as a free feature. This—alongside the new Plex Pass pricing—will help provide those resources. This change will apply to the future release of our new Plex experience for mobile and other platforms.

But let's be honest - it really is not complicated. That was a one minute configuration in my router.

    Ok, that is a totally different use case than mine. I'm one of those guys browsing a selfhosting community on the fediverse and I only want to stream my own stuff to my mobile and provide my wife with audiobooks. If you're providing a bigger group of people with streaming services, who are not tech savvy, another software might be the better solution. But that doesn't mean that Jellyfin is bad - it's just another use case with different requirements
